Substrate-Independent Light Confinement in Butterfly-Inspired Photonic Crystal Slabs

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Using the scale structure of the Dione juno butterfly wing as an inspiration, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a class of low-index surface structures that supports resonances without index contrast with the substrate; these resonances are substrate-independent.
